The small retailer transformation programme (or Program Transformasi Kedai Runcit, Program TUKAR), is focused on assisting small retailers to modernize and remain competitive. It involves the upgrading of small retailers currently in business. Small retailers face a number of business and demographic trends that are affecting their revenue and in many cases their existence. Market research conducted by Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) revealed that some small retailers face closure due to modern retailers (e.g. large-format operators) setting up shop in their vicinity

The modernization of small retailers can improve sales by up to 30 present. Increased sales result from attracting more customers, and customers spending more in the revamped stores that now offer a comfortable, modern, well-lit and clean environment with modern management and retailing techniques, similar to that of the large-format stores. This environment augments the small retailers’ advantage of being able to offer convenience by being located in the neighbourhood.

Currently, there are few policies or regulations governing the automotive workshops in Malaysia. Without regulations, there are large variations in the quality and service levels provided in this sector. There is also a perception of a lack of transparency in the services the workshops provide and in the charges they levy on customers. And as there is no structure governing the skill levels of the mechanics or technicians, there is also a variation in skill levels

As such, the ability of this sector to absorb and assimilate the latest technological advancements is limited. With the large number of Malaysian vehicles (13.7 million) and its owners spending an estimated RM10 billion on maintenance every year on their vehicles, there is a significant demand for automotive workshops.

Workshops that provide better service quality, coupled with transparency of charges, could encourage higher spending by vehicle owners through, for instance, more regular servicing, purchase of premium service packages and sales of peripherals.
